Expert contributors (primarily psychologists and psychology professors, with a few pop-culture mavens thrown in) examine such topics as family ties, the qualities of a Jedi, masculinity and "girl power," villainy, heroism, and the values embodied in the "dark" and "light" sides of the Force. Readers will come away with an understanding of how Star Wars shines a light into the hidden part of the psyche while also incorporating timeless societal myths and beliefs.
